It provides a strong research foundation for understanding the efficacy of equine assisted interventions and the potentially powerful impact that a horse can have in creating a new counseling dynamic. Chapters address using horses to help clients dealing with various traumas and abuse, anxiety, depression, atypical behaviors, and social skills and communication issues. One chapter is written by the internationally renowned "horse whisperer" Pat Parilli and offers a look at EAC from the horse's point of view and describes the process of developing a relationship with the horse in a positive, safe, and respectful manner, an important topic to ensure the well-being of the horse throughout a session. Counselors will find this a valuable resource for understanding and utilizing EAC as a new resource in their own practices, as will students seeking to learn about this innovative approach"--Provided by publisher.HorsemanshipTherapeutic useHorsesPsychological aspectsHorsesTherapeutic useHuman-animal relationshipsPsychotherapyElectronic books.HorsemanshipTherapeutic use.HorsesPsychological aspects.HorsesTherapeutic use.Human-animal relationships.Psychotherapy.615.8/51581615.851581Trotter Kay847139MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452156003321Harnessing the power of equine assisted counseling1892465UNINA
